Olimpo Nômade is an itinerant city for the performing artists at a music festival. It is the place where the musicians get ready before their performance, where they can relax and chill out with their peers after the concert or session. It is a lightweight, foldable, and transportable ‘galactic’ city that, wherever it is unfolded, serves as the support and backdrop for memorable experiences and legendary gatherings.

The lead character in this project is an extraordinary coastal landscape; thick, rugged, and impregnable, resisting the assaults of the Atlantic winds. We imagine the possibility of living under the cover of this greenery with the self-imposed objectives of being large and at the same time inconspicuous, while also invoking the unexpected behaviours of bodies and matters.

Attics comprise a peculiar urban geography. As the tops of buildings, they can reveal surprising singularities that are hard to imagine when one is strolling through a city at ground level. Cupolas, pavilions, terraces and towers share the space with leafy plantations, delusions in textile, illegal transparent enclosures and sloping tiled roofs. This project is linked to this world of fantasy, which it exploits through the restoration of the site’s stunning original features and the invention of architectural operations close to woodwork and gardening.
